Souderton Area Baseball and Softball League is happy to announce our annual winter clinics.
This is a great opportunity for the kids to shake off the winter cobwebs and begin getting prepared for the 2020 spring season.
After receiving feedback from coaches and parents, we will be placing the majority of our focus on pitching fundamentals for all baseball age levels. Softball clinics will have an overall fundamental focus at all age groups.
Please make sure that your ball player is registered for their designated 2020 SABL spring league prior to signing up for the work outs.

Future SABL Coaching Opportunities
SABL has decided to invest money in individuals that have expressed interest in coaching baseball, softball, both or Quick Ball. The SABL Board of Directors realize that our coaches are our #1 resource. We need to equip our coaches with tools, techniques, drills, etc. to make them the best they and Souderton Area Baseball and Softball can be. We greatly appreciate all that our coaches have done and continue to do for the youth in our organization. Ultimately, if coaches are running effective and efficient practices and games, this will lead to an increase in participant interest and skill development.

Updates & News
It’s no secret that hitting a baseball is up there as one of the most difficult things you can do as a human being. The game makes us suck, especially as hitters. Shoot, we only get 60 ft. to see a little white circle and try to hit it with a round bat somewhere no one can catch it. Oh, and the ball's coming in as fast as 100 mph. Sounds fun! Definitely. Sounds hard, too! Even more so.
Well it’s no wonder why we get so frustrated on a regular basis. Think about it, the best hitters at the highest level of baseball have a mere 30% success rate (.300 BA). I challenge you to find another profession where you wouldn’t get fired after only doing your job successfully 3 out of 10 times...and no one is happy when they don't succeed.
No doubt you've heard all of this before. So what’s that mean for baseball players?
